What do you all think!

I dont like primrose tbh i think lilly rose sounds nicer

Thanks DaisyDaresYOU. I like an honest opinion - particularly as our child is going to be stuck with whatever we call it for the rest of its life! x

Too much together I think.

nice for a sweet feminine slip of a girl
shame if she's not

Pretentious and so sweet I think I can feel my teeth decaying.

Cute for a baby, far too twee for an adult.

Hmm - yes EauRouge. I do see what you're saying...

too much flora. Lily and Rose in the one name? I wouldn't pick it myself.

Lilian Rosemary with Lily for short would be more to my taste. I think Primrose is AWful. Like Rosemary though. I like Rosemary Lily or Rosemary Lilian too.

lol at sirboob!

It's a bit flowery all in one name, I think. I like Primrose though! Not such a fan of Lily.

I like Primrose. But I find Lily a bit wishy washy.

Lily Primrose is really pretty!

But she will usually only be called Lily, and there seem to be at least 2 in every class atm.

Lilith is awful!

is she like a lily or like a primrose? she can't be both, you just can't have two flowers in a name can you?

in my view, the name has qualities which one wishes to reflect the child hence my opinion above.

I'd go for Lilian Primrose to slightly deflower/sweetify. I think you can just about use Primrose as a middle name - it's more interesting than Rose at least (lovely name but a very popular middle name at the moment).

Lily has been popular for a long time.

Awful in combination, I am sorry.

I like the suggestion of Lilian or Lilia to de-sweetify it though if you really love Primrose.

I agree - 2 flowers together are too much, choose one or the other. Which flower do you prefer?

Namewise, Lily is very common, whereas Primrose is less widely used. Not sure about nicknames for Primrose though...

I know a 14 year old Eliza Primrose. Which I think is lovely - but I do have to say that from the minute she could express a preference, she has hated it and called herself Lizzie - refusing to answer to what she thinks of as her soppy, girly name!

Ooh I do like Eliza Primrose seeker
